After the game last week the QPR players feel like household names in my head 

I particularly like Kitchen Cupboard and Waste Disposal Unit? 

Well what a surprise?  i was Tempted in, to read a piece by Hollowhead on today's Bristol Post website with regard to the new initiative to re introduce standing at soccer grounds, I should have known better?  Given the opportunity to make some serious points and insight into the issue....Hollowhead, given so many choices as examples, decides to regurgitate May 1990 at a Bath building site.?    Quite probably my worst ever experience at an away match, and i have been to a lot, standing on a ramshackle terrace on crutches, due to a broken leg suffered playing football a few weeks before, it started badly, and then got worse.   It was just the most horrendous capitulation to a pumped up Gas side, who just blew us away with route one football that we just couldn't cope with.  i spent a depressing 90 minutes teetering on my wooden props, trying to stay upright,   hating every minute, and wishing i'd   stayed home.  I have just rewatched the video through gritted teeth, made even worse by Malone's wittering monstrosity of a commentary, and it is still the horrible mess I have tried to forget.  .

So thanks a lot Hollowhead for stirring up a memory i have tried to suppress, you just couldn't help yourself could you FFS?   Apparently you got a great Buzz from the game?, well you know where you can stick that Buzz don't you?          Anyway time is a great healer, and as we gradually move onwards and upwards under Uncle Nige, I take great solace in seeing our sad neighbours slow decline towards Non-league    football as some kind of reward for my worst ever 90 minutes   at an away game.   Any other away game horror stories out there?               

I don't get it?   It stated in the article that if both clubs agree to the match being   played in Jersey....then it could go ahead?   Have Sutton refused to play in Jersey?

Anybody know when the match podcasts become available?   Namely OSIB - 3 Peaps & Forever City?  I thankyou!

Nakhi Wells played as a central striker and scored. Whoever could’ve seen that happening?

I'm genuinely shocked....who'd have thought it.....I wonder if he could do it again?

My first ever away game.  On the train with my kids and looking forward to it.  I’ve explained to them that we need to make some noise and it will be a different experience to the family section at Home.

Hoping that the restricted view warning on our tickets doesn’t spoil it for us.  
 

Hey Barney..............you will have to go to some more away games?   You and your kids are obviously our lucky mascots! Ha!

I’m sorry but we are shit, really shit. When did things get this bad? As soon as LJ left.

You most definitely win............stupidest misguided comment of the day.....Congrats!!

Good Luck to Tanner......and Bakes, I can see him scoring today?

Good Luck.....I hope you and your kids have a brilliant day........and even an away win to enjoy?

I’ve got a bad feeling we’re going to lose today, but hopefully I’m wrong. 

Those 4 points we’ve dropped by conceding late goals against Blackpool and Luton really have created more pressure. 

Just noticed QPR are the "Racing Post's" home banker of the day.........which is not necessarily a bad thing, as they  tend to have a poor record with their tips?

Despite the crappy ground I'm looking forward to this - it's my first post lockdown game.

QPR's stadium is brilliant IMHO.........and always generates a great atmosphere.

Gamon has a very short memory or is very young. Do you remeber the Cup run, beating Man U, giving Man C a harder game than most prem clubs do and LJ taking us to the heights of the Championship when we expected to win every game? We have gone downhill since then and no single coach, player (nor MA) is to'blame' for that. We all know SL found MA to be the first person in football he could really trust and in your personal world one should think about that.

Most people on here seem happy to criticise MAand for some reason are happy to ignore and forget the good players he brought in and the great deals he did selling players for good money to fit the business model. Complaining about an ex boss at the club has become one of the biggest yawns on here. Let's get this terrible home run under NP sorted out before forgetting where we were at pressing the top of the Championshi

See you tonight? CoYRS

I have the number of a good psychiatrist if your interested?............or perhaps you could ring up your good buddy Mark for some advice?

****** it up. **** you guys 

We are ******* dire and Pearson isn't doing anything to make that any better 

 

 

If i were you Bas...I 'd    go and have a quiet lie down in a dark room.  We are a work in progress, its not gonna be a miraculous transformation overnight, it will get better given time.  Meanwhile go and get your blood pressure checked?

No worries.............only Fulham and Bournemouth  next 2 home games. ...............sorry, I mean, next 2 home defeats   

According to Nige...........the players never even mention the lack of a home win?.................Well they'll be phecking discussing it now...

You have to laugh at the total inevitable nature of it?..................ha!!

tense innit?

271 minutes......just became 1 minute?

Is it taking off?

I kinda feel like the BBC are attempting to force it on me with their coverage on the website. 

Well it is obviously taking off, as everytime i go on the football websites, it is about the latest transfer or match featuring the latest greatest women footballers?   However It is still not a great product if u like your football to be exciting?  Ha!

My word women’s football is crap. I want to like it, but non league streets ahead. 

I am always astounded that people pay money to watch it.....good luck to women's soccer, it's great that it is taking off, but just don't expect me to watch it.......Ha!

Just how long has the right back position been an issue?  Why can't coaches and managers solve our ongoing problem?   A Specialist right back is all we want?.............is it too much to ask?   PS. Hopefully Tanner will be the solution, but how long till he is ready?

Fantastic post and a cool quiz! I’ve always liked an additional question - which two clubs are nicknamed the Hatters? Obviously one is Luton Town ...

Stockport??

I'm confidently going for a 3 or 4 nil home win tonight. About time.

I'd be more than happy to give you the name of an excellent psychiatrist? 

Don't know if this is apocryphal?...........but the story goes that when Mendy was told that he was being put in the VP wing of the prison......his thought process made him think that he was being incarcerated in the  cosy VIP section of the nick............got quite upset, apparently, when he met his new cell mates.  ha! 

Personally i feel sorry for the guy..........he obviously has talent, but injury problems have hindered his career.  The joke, that was our medical/fitness staff prior to Nige, didn't exactly aid his recovery...and because he was unable to play, he was offered a poor contract by City....so he left.   i am certain that if he had been able to contribute regularly, things  would have turned out better for him here?

However, he has moved on, and i hope he does well. This happens constantly in football.......there will always be winners and losers, luck often plays a part ?
